Some models have the option of reversible seating, which lets you choose whether your children face each other or look out at you. Many tandems can be made into a single pushchair when your oldest child is no longer in need of the second seat.

A tandem is more affordable than a twin pram and is an excellent choice for parents who want to save money, without having to sacrifice safety or functional. However, a drawback of a tandem is that it can be heavy and long to steer especially when moving up and down kerbs. It is usually less stable than a twin pram, especially if the child who is older is sitting in the front. A tandem can also be difficult to get onto public transport and is difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

It comes with frames that can be expanded in size to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with a range of combinations of buggy seats, car seats and carrycots (two at one time or in separate).

Side by side

There are many things to think about when selecting a double pushchair or pram. If you're buying a double pram for twins or siblings who are close in age there are a variety of configuration options to consider. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams, are popular options because they can be set up in a way that the infant is able to sit in the bassinet in the middle while the older child or toddler is seated in the second seat.

Some models even have convertible seats, which means you can adapt the configuration to suit your family's needs throughout the baby and toddler years. This allows you to see your children at all times, and allows them to connect with them while they walk.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram right from birth in the dual mode by adding the use of the rumble seat (PS249). You can then change to a single pram mode once your baby gets used to the rumble seat or select the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to transform it into a traveler from infant to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram made by Babybee is a different alternative. This double side-byside pram comes in a range of colors and is designed in a contemporary design. It is designed to be used from birth, you can include the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

It is possible to fit two toddlers in the seats or even a third one on the seat board and have room for a shopping basket, and the capability to add additional accessories such as rain covers is another advantage. Most convertible double strollers are bigger and heavier than single pushchairs as they have to be able to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is user-friendly, however our testers thought it was a bit heavy for the money.

Some double strollers that can be converted into convertibles like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 have a carrycot that is suitable for newborns. This allows the double stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when it is not used. The City Select's innovative folding system that is one-handed impressed our test subjects however it requires some time to master. It's also very nimble and responsive, despite being bigger than other double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another option that is reasonably priced. It can be converted from a parent facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet-style mode is a great option for infants.

If you're looking for more flexibility, consider a dual-mode convertible such as the iCandy Peach. It's a small double buggy which can accommodate 2 children side by side, but it can also be used as a tandem by the addition of a second-seat kit and rider board. It feels fluid and responsive, and our test users loved its sleek design. It's not as light as the other pushchairs in our list however, it comes with a large shopping basket which is great for parents who carry bags of groceries and toys.

Lightweight

Convertible double strollers are a great option for parents who have children and anticipate to have another. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair double by the addition of a toddler's seat or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal to sleep at night). Our testers noted the comfort of the seats and adore the fact that they both recline to different positions, have built-in leg and foot support and large UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out. The rear seat can also be lifted high to offer an elevated platform for a child to get off and on to allow them to access items in the basket of groceries.

Cher said that the only negative aspect of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she felt that this was compensated for because it's easy to move and has plenty of storage with two cup holders for children and parents as well as seat-back pockets and a large basket underneath the seat. Cher also loved that the seats can be reversed so that they can be positioned to face each other, which is perfect for siblings who like to chat and have conversations when they are out and out and about.

A lighter-weight but just as impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller, which weighs only 18 pounds, is extremely compact and has a self-standing fold that makes it easy to carry and store in your trunk or at home. Parents are impressed by the quality of materials and workmanship, as well as the price. The only downsides are that the seats don't recline as much compared to other models we've tested and the rear seat isn't as prominent because of its position - it is raised higher than the front seat.

Another popular choice is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim sleek, stylish and easy to steer, and comes with an attractive design and lifetime guarantee. Although they are narrower side-by-side prams may be wider than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. They're also shorter which makes them easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
